Nangula wolimba
Ndili mwana, ndinkacheza ndi bambo anga kunyanja komwe kunkakhala azakhali anga ndi amalume anga. Tinakwera bwato lopalasa n’kupita kunyanja n’kukasodza ndi mtengo wansungwi wokha. Monga nangula tinali ndi chingwe chimene chinaikidwa m’chitini cha khofi chimene chinamangidwira ku bwato ndi mfundo. Zinathandiza kuchepetsa kutengeka kwa botilo m’madzi, koma sikunatisungitse mmenemo kwa nthaŵi yaitali m’mafunde amphamvu. Kaŵirikaŵiri tinkafunikira kutsitsa nangula ndi kuikanso bwato mobwerezabwereza. Ndimamvabe kugwedezeka kwamadzi m'mbali mwa botilo. Kukumbukira kumeneku ndi kwamtengo wapatali kwa ine. Dzuwa linatitenthetsa, phokoso lamadzi linali lotonthoza, ndipo kukhala ndi atate kunali kwamtengo wapatali kwa ine. Panthawi imeneyo ndinkaona kuti ndine wotetezeka, wokondedwa komanso wotetezeka.
Tonsefe timafunikira chitetezo, chikondi ndi chitetezo. Tikamamatira ku zinthu zadziko, nthawi zambiri timakumana ndi nthaka yomwe ili pansi pathu ikugwedezeka. Zinthu zimasintha, anthu amasintha, thanzi lathunso limasintha. Zimenezi zingachititse kuti chikhulupiriro chathu chifooke. Tiyenera kukonzanso malo athu nthawi zonse ndikudzimangirira molimba mobwerezabwereza. M’dziko lodzala ndi kukayikakayika ndi kusintha, chikhulupiriro chimatipatsa maziko okhazikika ndi osagwedezeka: “Chiyembekezo ichi ndi nangula wa ife wokhazikika ndi wokhazikika, wofikira m’Kachisi wakumwamba, m’Malo Opatulikitsa kuseri kwa chophimba. Yesu anapita kumeneko patsogolo pathu. Iye ndi Mkulu wa Ansembe wathu mpaka kalekale, ngati mmene analili Melekizedeki.” (Aheb 6,19-20 Chiyembekezo kwa Onse). Mafala anewa asatikumbusa kuti Mafala a Mulungu ndi andimomwene, pontho tinakwanisa kunyindira. Mwa kugwiritsitsa kwa Mulungu mwa chikhulupiriro, timapeza mwa Iye nangula wathu wolimba ndi wamphamvu wa chiyembekezo.
Madzi a m’nyanjamo sankakhala bata nthawi zonse pamene ine ndi bambo tinkapita kokawedza. Mphepo itayamba kugunda, bwatolo linayamba kugwedezeka, koma kupezeka kwa abambo kunandipatsa chitetezo. Bambo anga ankagwira mwamphamvu kuposa nangula wa ngalawayo. Dziko lathuli lidzagwedezeka nthawi ndi nthawi, makamaka pamene zinthu zamoyo zikutisokoneza. Muzochitika zotere tiyenera kukumbukira kuti Atate wathu wakumwamba ndi Yesu ndiye nangula wathu wolimba: “Koma Khristu ali ndi moyo ku nthawi za nthawi; unsembe wake sutengedwa konse ndi wina. Pakuti Yesu Khristu ali ndi moyo wosatha ndipo amatipembedzera pamaso pa Mulungu, ndipo pomalizira pake adzapulumutsa aliyense wobwera kwa Mulungu kudzera mwa iye.” 7,24-25 Chiyembekezo kwa Onse).
Ndikukumbukira ulendo wa bwato wopita kumadzi okulirapo kumene mchimwene wanga anandiuza za nsomba zazikulu zokhala ndi mano awo owopsa zimene zimakhala kumeneko. Zinali bwino mpaka mphepoyo inakoka ndipo ngalawayo inayamba kugwedezeka. Ndinkaopa kuti ndigwera m’madzi, koma nditawayang’ana bambo anga ananditsimikizira kuti zonse zikhala bwino. Anatitengera kumadzi odekha ndipo anandichotsera mantha.
Baibulo limatilimbikitsa kuti: “Chotero tikukhumba kuti mukhalebe changu chimenechi kufikira chimaliziro, kuti mugwire molimba mtima chiyembekezo chimene Mulungu wakupatsani.” ( Aheb. 6,11 chiyembekezo kwa onse). Kupyolera mu chikhulupiriro ndi chidaliro chopatsidwa ndi Mulungu, mukhoza kuthana ndi zovuta zonse ndikupeza mphamvu mu mtendere ndi chitonthozo chake. Choncho timakhala okhazikika ndikulola chikondi chake chosatha ndi chisamaliro chake kutitsogolera.
